Big Bird. Binders. Obama’s bad mom jeans. You can’t get through Election Day without absorbing all topics wonk. But do you know what this race to the throne is missing? Sexy dames in cheeky outfits. Enter stage left, the lovely ladies of Viva Dallas Burlesque! They’re closing the curtain on the voting room and embracing those moments you’ve either loved or hated from elections past in the new show Dirty Politics. You’ll see Russia from your house! You’ll respect Michelle Obama for her choice to purchase nipple tassels from J. Crew instead of from a more expensive designer. And by the night’s end, you’ll wish you were in all of their oval offices — high hat, please. Join the broads that change the world — Roxie Moxie, Sassy Delure, Miss Malicious, Iris Le’Mour and more at the Lakewood Theater (1825 Abrams Road) at 8 p.m. on Friday. Tickets cost $20. Get them at vivadallasburlesque.com.
